Hi Surajit, Your plants don't look like L.asiatica to me. They could be L.indica [or some other species]. With regards, Neil Soares.

Very beautifully illustrated Leea macrophylla in your https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/WRBGQHgX_qA/m_vtNXm7WlYJ upload. I will have to read again if my species could be L. asiatica as in your 2nd upload in https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/4-Fw_Wmmww4/sC7pTsWY1-UJ. Attaching few images of two plants, seemingly same species. One is about 7 ft. high and the other is about 4.5 ft., recorded on the day before yesterday (both).

Plants of Leea macrophylla that I have seen in Sanjay Gandhi National Park (Yeoor Hills, Nagla Block, Tungareshwar Wildlife Sanctuary) show the leaf to be in large simple shape. In some rare sightings - I have seen the leaf splitting in one or two leaflet at the base, the rest of the leaf remaining as a whole. My views: http://www.flickr.com/search/?w=91314344@N00&q=Leea%20macrophylla Eager to know from those who are familiar with Leea species. Regards.

All? What Roxburgh himself writes (on Leea macrophylla) - "... leaves simple, alternate, petioled, broad cordate, irregularly serrate or toothed lobed...." What do you think?
